CNN.com "smudges" out photo used on their cover
If you look closely at the left hand, you can see that they smudged out the cartoon flip-off.

Lost Remote: Stunner: Dan Abrams named GM of MSNBC
You know how they handed X-Men III over to Brett Ratner for the sole purpose of driving the series into the ground? I'm just saying.

The Olbermann-O'Reilly feud
"As if set on an elementary-school playground, the Olbermann-O'Reilly feud sets the sassy class wit against the bruising class bully."

'Olbermann' banned from O'Reilly's show
"So now I'm expecting that soon I'll be getting a visit from the Bill O'Reilly police, armed with loofahs."

Chicago Tribune ME's e-mail to Tucker Carlson
Tucker, like most Republicans in the media, doesn't have the sense to realize that he's part of the problem that he's railing against. If Tucker had balls, he would've printed those cartoons on a t-shirt and told his corporate overlords to go fuck themsel

Connected Coast to Coast died last month!
Holy shit, I didn't even notice - thank the gods for this one. Now Republican fembot Monica Crowley can slink back into radio obscurity and Ron Reagan can go on railing against stem cells.

Hendrick Hertzberg demystifies the war on Christmas
This is quite excellent and rightfully puts in their place all of the overhyped Christmas warriors selling not much more than anti-semitism and misplaced discontent. "Christmas is the big retail season. What Fox [News] retails is resentment."

NBC Takes Control of MSNBC
Finally, the rumors come true. Hopefully this means that all the crappy content on cable will go away and we can get back to the business of good news.

Browsing the Site, Not Watching the Show - New York Times
"Why is MSNBC.com doing so well if its parent perennially trails other TV news channels?" The answer is simple: all cable news sucks and there's simply not enough room for three 24-hour news channels amongst such a small, simple-minded audience.

Tucker's craptacular show gets moved to a new time slot, opposite "The Daily Show"
If the debut of "The Situation with Tucker Carlson" wasn't actually the beginning of the end, this most certainly is.

Slashdot on CNN's free video
This is really, really hilarious. I particularly love how this is a "response to FOX News" -- which completely ignores the fact that FOX News is an also-ran on the web. News for nerds who don't know shit about the news biz.

Slate on Tucker Carlson's new show
"Tucker Carlson comes off as your ultimate nightmare of the college roommate you might be assigned on the first day of freshman year: a smug yuppie smartass with a drawerful of perfectly folded pastel polo shirts."
